Does Squeeze's linux-image-2.6.32-5-amd64 already includes Xen PV
support? I believed it was included since v3.0.
I'm quite sure it's the same stock kernel image, I has the same MD5
hash as a regular Debian 6.0 64-bit installation I have around.


Upstream Linux has had Xen domU support since 2.6.24.
So yes, Linux 2.6.32 default kernel has pvops Xen PV support.
I feel like need to go back to school... Have always been using *-xen kernels, even in DomU's.

-xen kernels is still better.

All vanilla kernels < 3.0 can't raise memory over initial value (even static max > dynamic max), and time is screwed after migration, and MemTotal is not equal to mem_kb for domain... It can works, but we still using suse's -xen forward-ported kernels, because they more polished, than upstream.
